As these are popular events, GOER WLS will enforce attendance rules. All employees will only be able to attend one complete webinar session, one time in their career. In addition, if live seminars do return, employees who attended these webinars will not be permitted to register and attend the live seminar.
Eligibility criteria will also apply. One attendance is open to any employee who meets the below criteria:
- is at least 50 years of age and
- eligible to retire in five years
